Updating firmware
Basic procedure
To update the firmware of a CPU, you will receive several files (*.UPD) containing the
current firmware. You download these files to the CPU.
The CPU whose firmware you want to update must be accessible online, e.g., via
PROFIBUS or Industrial Ethernet. The files containing the current firmware versions must be
downloaded into the programming device/PC file system. A folder may contain only the files
of one firmware version. If the CPU is protected with a password, you need the respective
password for the update.
Note any information posted in the firmware download area.
Proceed as follows to update the firmware of a CPU:
1. Open the station containing the CPU you want to update in HW Config.
2. Select the CPU.
3. Select the "PLC -> Update Firmware" menu command.
